Residential Solar Incentives

There are several incentives available to Illinois homeowners looking to make the switch to solar.

Residential Clean Energy Credit

Use Your Investment to Reduce Your Tax Bill

Homeowners can claim up to 30% of the entire cost of new residential solar power systems installed from 2022 through 2032 on their federal tax returns by claiming the RCEC, also known as the Solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC).

Solar Renewable Energy Credits

Sell the Value of Your System's Community Contribution

The value placed on the benefit to the community when your home solar system generates power is measured in Solar Renewable Energy Credits (SRECS). Thanks to Illinois Shines, formally known as the Adjustable Block Program (ABP), these credits can recoup 20-35% of the cost of your system.

Utility Bill Credits

Turn the Energy You Don't Need Now Into Credits for Later

Using net metering, excess electricity that is generated by your home solar panel system and sent to the grid offsets the electrical supply costs on your utility bill at a 1:1 rate. Unlike previous years, unused utility bill credits roll over each month and do not expire.

Distributed Generation Rebate

Get a Rebate on Standard Solar Equipment

Ameren Illinois provides a DG smart inverter rebate of $300/kW (DC) to residential solar installation customers using smart inverters to interconnect their home solar power system to the grid.

Solar Property Tax Exemption

Add Home Value Without Increasing Your Property Taxes

With a special solar assessment, Illinois homeowners that receive a solar property tax exemption are not required to pay taxes on the value added to their property by a home solar system or solar battery.
